What a crazy picture. Even the painting is askew. What's the story?
Sept. 16, 2014 "Our New Companion"
He followed us around one day for an hour or two. came up to doors with us while tracking and would just sit there quietly. really well behaved dog. Elder Redd was scared of him though, he's scared of all dogs.

"Dad says we should send you handle bar streamers for the borrowed bike. That would complete the picture."
Sep 16, 2014 "The Coolest Bike" (mom would love it)
Falls here, yet it still feels like the middle of summer. We had a
couple of nice weeks of cloudy weather and temps in the high 80s but
this past week it has shot way back up with the heat index in the
100s(humidity kills) and we have been on bikes all week. So for the
past 8 or 9 months the brakes on my bike have been all messed up, I
have been only using my front brakes for the past 5 months and every
so often they would go out and I would play around and fix it but this
last week I couldn't fix it so I ended up taking it into the bike
shop, they just got back with me today on what's wrong with it, turns
out I need some new part to my brakes and all in all it's going to
cost $130, so I just told him I would take the bike back and figure
something out, I didn't even spend that much in the bike in the first
place. So in the mean time I'm using a members bike.
But other than that we have had a pretty eventful week. Meet with one
of our investigators DJ and Kira, Kira wants to be baptized but works
on Sundays and DJ is on the border line of being baptized, he's just
scared to make the commitment, he was suppose to come to church this
past Sunday with his kids but for some reason didn't. Also this week
we saw Debra Ross who had came to church once, we having been trying
to see her for a while but kept missing her, well this time we caught
her and had a powerful lesson with her teaching the gospel of Jesus
Christ and really focusing on he sacrament, she really like it and
committed to be baptized on the 4th of October, sadly she also didn't
come to church on Sunday, but we did have a big suprise there. One of
our investigators that we haven't seen in two weeks came with his girl
friend that is actually a member but hasn't been to church in over a
year, they really enjoyed it and said they would be back next week.
Lastly just yesterday we had a pretty interesting visit with a less
active who hasn't been to church in a long time, her mom was there
also who was actually excommunicated, turned into an interesting
visit, both know the church is true no doubt and the daughter wants us
to keep coming back and she wants to come back to church as well, the
mom does as well so she can be sealed in the temple to her mom and
kids but at the same time it feels like she is trying to lead her
daughter away. It's an interesting situation.
So this week is also transfer week. Found out last night that elder
redd is leaving and I am getting a new companion tomorrow, should be
interesting. It's been a good past 4 months serving here with elder
redd, never have I knocked so many doors.
Love you all

Welcome to Waycross, Georgia
Mommy,
I love the pictures that you sent, I love getting pictures. And as for how hints are going this week, it's been great, the week before was just a little rough but we all good now, this last was full of lots of interesting stories. Sounds like you have been having a fun time with grandma, if she wants to be with somebody 24/7, just send her on a mission and they will have no chose but to stay by her(only joking) but I do miss those good times with you watching tv, we will have lots to catch up on when I get home, making up for those 2 years. So hey last week you said that you were going to be starting something this week, but wouldn't tell me until now, so what is it? I love you mommy, don't forget that. I love you more than all the pictures that have ever been taken!!!
Jeremy,
Yes, you are looking good!! So what was I going to start last week? You really want to know? I started Balkan Dancing, it is a International Folk dancing. Dances from Russia, Turkey, Greece and others around there. We are living in a prime area for international folk dancing. It has always been a goal / dream to learn the many different dances. Something that I wished I had started 30 years ago, so that my children would have been a part of it. But that didn't happen. So now I have started, last week I just didn't want to jinx it, and not go. Laura went with me. I think she had fun. She says she can't dance, but it sure looked like she was, she looked good. It is on Friday evenings on the north/east side of Seattle downtown area. About 50 mile one way, takes an hour to get there. But worth it. They have an instructional class for the first hour, then open dancing for everyone. Does cost a little bit. All adults, about my age, a few
> younger than me, and some a lot older than me, I think. They were really nice, and not nerdy. So I have committed to go for at least the next couple of months to a year. It feels good. That's my big secret. Love, Mom

Folk dancing, wow, do remember you enjoyed that, you would take us
from time to time to the dances they did at sfcc in Spokane. I
remember when you were going to pay me to do swing dancing with Laura
as well but she bailed on it, I was looking forward to that one. Who
knows maybe I'll join you when I get home. As for the streamers on the
bike I can make anything look good. Also as for the debit card I'm not
to worried about it right now. Keep up the good work mommy, maybe you
can teach me to dance.....
Love ya
